Discussing 3R issues is allowed as long as no laws are broken, Dewan Rakyat told

The Star

Matters related to race, religion and royalty (3R) can still be discussed within the limits of the law, says Deputy Home Minister Datuk Seri Shamsul Anuar Nasarah.  The government has no plans to enact specific laws or guidelines on 3R issues as it can be open to exploitation by irresponsible parties, he added during Question Time in the Dewan Rakyat on Tuesday (Nov 14).

00:00 I want to say that not all things related to 3R are prohibited,

00:05 as long as it does not violate and break the rules I set earlier.

00:13 Meaning if the government touches on 3R, it does not violate the rules, it is not a mistake.

00:20 In this matter, if any parties do not fully understand this matter,

00:27 then the approach that should be taken is better not to discuss about 3R openly

00:34 until it causes discomfort to the other parties.

00:39 The nature of the definition of 3R in our constitution is very broad

00:44 and to limit the violation of the limitations of the Constitution will only open up space

00:51 and an opportunity for irresponsible parties to exploit the limits of the Constitution.

00:57 In this matter, the actions that are carried out by the PDRM

01:04 are deliberately exaggerated as if the government or the PDRM

01:13 deliberately threaten or intimidate the irresponsible parties.

01:19 The PDRM deliberately avoids the wrong and excessive actions

01:25 until it is not controlled and can threaten the security of the country and your peace.

01:32 Therefore, the police should not be involved in avoiding these actions.

01:38 I mentioned earlier that the PDRM still carries out its duties and responsibilities

01:45 and it is not more than that.

01:49 If any parties are not satisfied with the actions taken by the authorities,

01:57 they can use channels related to the complaint as the police did,

02:05 for example through IPCC and so on.

02:11 If the authorities are not satisfied with the actions,

02:15 they can file a complaint in the court.

02:18 This shows that we act fairly to ensure the safety of the public in this country.

02:23 Thank you.
